HOSPITAL BILLS FOR PRISONERS OF THE CITY OF LUBBOCK SET IN FROM PAGE 497, ITEM NO. 64-23-497-1348.

FROM:
TO:
William J. Pitstick, City Manager November 23, 1964
Honorable Mayor and City Council
SUBJECT: Medical and Hospital Bills for Prisoners of the City of Lubbock
It is the purpose of this report to:
1. Inform the City Council of certain problems which have arisen
recently in regard to medical bills for prisoners.
2. Inform the City Council'of present policies regarding these
situations and review this policy.
3. List all pending medical bills in regard to prisoners.
4: Recommend payments on pending medical bills.
5. Recommend modifications in the present policies.
During the past few months, the City of Lubbock has been the recipient of several
bills from the local hospitals and several local doctors regarding medical bills,
hospital bills, and emergency treatment for prisoners in the custody of the
Lubbock Police Department. The hospitals have apparently sent all bills related .
to prisoners to the City of Lubbock for payment without regard for existing
policies and without proper notification to — and authorization by — the City of
Lubbock that these bills would be paid and that the City of•Lubbock is responsi-
ble for the payment of said bills.
The basic problem is to define the City of Lubbock's legal_re_sponsibiiity in
providing medical assistance for prisoners in the custody of the Lubbock Police
Department. The question arises as to what type of medical assistance, whether_
emergency or permanent, is'ustified under -the laws of the State of Texas.
According to the City Attorney's Office, the operation of a police department is
a governmental function and acts or omissions in connection therewith ordinarily
do not give rise to liability on the part of the City. No law has been found
which requires the City to provide a daily medical. check on the health of prison-
ers in Texas. Some cities pay only for treatment for injuries inflicted on a per-
son by a police officer in the course of making an arrest. Some attorneys feel
that payment of medical bills of prisoners would be an unconstitutional donation
of a municipal fund to a non-public purpose.
It appears that reasonable rules consistent with good human conduct and natural
ethics under the circumstances dictate that prisoners should receive such immed-
iate medical attention as good conscience would dictate under given circumstances.
Present policy on medical and hospital bills for prisoners is shown in Exhibit
The attached Exhibit II shows a tabulation of pending prisoners' bills. Only in
one or two cases did the officers take the prisoner to the hospital before confin-
ing him to jail. Most of the cases in Exhibit 11 became ill or injured while in
the City jail. According to the policy as outlined in Exhibit 1, persons who be-
come ill or injured while in the custody of the Police Department will be given
emergency medical treatment but that no hospitalization or medical care will be
furnished by the City of Lubbock for any person within the third category, which

FIRST METHODIST CHURCH
December 2} 1964
The City Council
916 Texas Avenue
Lubbock, Texas
Dear Sirs,
Some weeks ago, Mrs. Jack Keels came to my office to discuss plans for opening a teenage night
club at the intersection of 19th and the Brownfield Highway. We talked at some length about
specific plans of operation and supervision.
I recognize, as do most leaders of the Community, as well as parents of teenage children, the need
for a closely supervised place for the youth of our schools to dance. It is clearly established
that this is a favorite form of youth recreation. I also recognize a definite shortage of places
for couples to go for entertainment.
In light of these factors, I am of the opinion that a properly supervised teenage night club would
be a definite asset to our community. I am also satisfied, from my discussion with Mrs. Keels,
that this is the type of thing they hope to open. I have withheld my full endorsement until I
have seen the club in operation. My position is that it is imperative that alcoholic beverages
be neither sold nor allowed on the premises, and that those persons giving evidence of intoxication
be denied admission. I am convinced this is what the proprietors have in mind, and will endeavor
to enforce.'
I have also taken the position that if the night club is run properly and in good order, I will
not only endorse it, but recommend it to the parents of youth with whom I work as an acceptable
place for high school and college youth to go and take dates.
Sincerely,
Carl M. Anderson
Minister to Youth

Dear Mr. Pitstick,
The Lubbock Public Library Board requests favorable action by the City Council for a survey
of Lubbock's library services and course for future developments. The Board has contacted Mrs.
Gretchen Schenk, a nationally known library consultant who has indicated by the enclosed letter
that she is available for this service after Feb. 5, 1965. The cost to the city will be $600.00,
including expenses.
The Lubbock County Commissioners, at their meeting on Mon., November 23, agreed to pay her an
additional $300.00 for a survey of county needs. This action is contingent on the City Council's
approval of -a city survey.
We feet this undertaking will give the Board and the City guideposts for library development
for many future years; and will assure Lubbock citizens, both city and county, of a well spent
tax dollar.
Very truly yours,
Mrs. William B. Arper, Chr.

Dear Mrs. Arper:
This is to confirm the telegram I sent you this afternoon in response to your inquiry regarding
the possibility of my conducting a survey of Lubbock Library services and future developments.
As to available dates, I shall be free to come to Lubbock any time after February 5th.
Since Lubbock is one of the focal points in the planning of library services for the entire Texas
Panhandle, a study of probable and possible future developments should be beneficial at this time.
I quoted you a cost of $600 including expenses as well as the writing of the report, Your Board
might wish to consider an alternative charge of $75 per day plus expenses, covering approximately
seven working days.
The additional cost of studying a merger with Lubbock County will amount to $300 since the major
cost of my travel expenses would not be involved.
Should you wish to have me undertake the study, I should incidentally also like to consider the
role of Lubbock as the center of extended library services in the future. I did this for Abilene
a number of years ago. Today even more than then "no library is an island" and with the Texas
State Plan for libraries emerging more clearly Lubbock may develop into an,important library
center in the future.
Sincerely,
Gretchen Knief Schenk
Library Consultant
The City Council considered the information as set out in the above letters from Mrs. William B.
Arper, Chairman of the Lubbock Library Board and Gretchen Knief Schenk, Library Consultant,
as to survey to be made in connection with the Lubbock Public Library. Motion was made by
Councilman Kastman, seconded by Councilman Simpson, motion carried, Mayor Tidmore and Councilmen
Kastman, Simpson, and Medlock voting Yea, none voting Nay, to authorize payment of the City's
portion of this cost for said Library Survey as set out in the two above letters and to authorize
Mayor Tidmore to enter into contract for said Library Survey.
64-23-502-1357 Motion by Councilman Medlock, seconded by Councilman Simpson, motion carried, Mayor Tidmore and
